Five days in the magical island of Serifos, Greece purifying your inner self through ancient Greek Therapy techniques in a eco-living paradise with private access on a sandy beach, create the ideal escape from everyday life to nourish, heal and rejuvenate your self. 'Contact with your Inner Sound’ is an inner healing journey through different techniques of Drama Therapy, Theatre, Yoga and Sound Therapies with planetary Gong and Tibetan Singing Bowls. Nature will offer its healing powers through the air, the sun and the crystal blue sea of Greece. A retreat to nourish your body, mind and soul. Not to be missed!
Gong Bath immersion / Tibetan Singing Bowls. The sound vibrations, frequencies, and harmonic sacred sounds of planetary Gong transfer our brain activity to Alpha and Theta brain waves of deep relaxation. Here begins the experiential journey of awakening, coordination, purification, and self-healing. It is a unique experience of rhythms, movements, and sound frequencies, a sound journey through the Pythagorean music of the Spheres.
The yoga of the voice through ancient breath and sound practices, guides us into the experience of devotional chants and sounds that clear, tune, and stimulate the brain and the energy of the chakras. As a result, the mind expands into luminous states of consciousness and an ecstatic sense of well-being, while we reveal and connect with our personal sound.
Drama therapy tools and techniques we will aim at connecting and accepting our inner reality which very often is quite far from the outer. Recognition and acceptance will help us get rid of the internal conflict that is the cause of stress. Our authentic self will meet us when we first cleanse our house to receive it.
Physical theater techniques help us to begin an active dialogue with our bodies. The first step is to connect with our body through free movement, following the body’s impulse. As we follow the impulse, we seek to recognize the emotion.

The rule, known as the "AVATON", forbids access to Mount Athos by any female and is enforced by law. Mount Athos, which overlooks the peninsula, is a huge conical mountain with a height of 2.033 meters. The natural landscapes of the peninsula are astonishing, the picturesque hills, the ver- dant green forests, the steep cliffs and the abundance of running waters. The unique architectural style of the monasteries, with its castle-like arrangement of the buildings, the impressive towers, the admirable bell towers, the carved wood or marble chancel screens, as well as the wonderful decor of excellent murals, holy icons and the melodious psalmodies, which create a unique atmosphere of catanyxis, make Agion Oros a living museum of art, ethnology and ecclesiastical history.

Neda is a well-kept secret river of Greece, still a hidden gem! When a river is named after a nymph of ancient legend, it usually means that, for centuries now, people have been in awe of its natural beauty, its amazing landscapes and the magnificent waterfalls. A visit to Neda Waterfall and a swim in its magical water is an once in a lifetime experience!
At the Abeliona Retreat we believe that one’s body is one’s temple. With respect to nutrition, we offer a rich breakfast buffet and menu dishes based on local recipes and pure ingredients. We also provide locally grown fruits, vegetables and herbs, many of which are handpicked from our vegetable garden and greenhouse, just a short time before being served, while the eggs come directly from the property’s grain-fed, free range chickens. Every day, we prepare a variety of local dishes, with appealing choices for vegetarians, health-conscious individuals and meat-eaters alike.
